What sort of research projects and research actions are needed to tackle outstanding knowledge gaps on adolescent nutrition in Indonesia? This article investigates.
Recently, adolescence has been identified as a second window of opportunity for the correction of nutritional inadequacies. However, there is a lack of knowledge on evidence-based integrated nutrition strategies for adolescents in Indonesia.
In this article, published in Food and Nutrition Bulletin, the authors attempt to narrow this gap by providing a research agenda and prioritizing research actions.
They find that in order to support the design, implementation and effectiveness of integrated nutrition programmes for Indonesian adolescents, in-depth studies should question the best intervention strategies, modes of delivery and long-term outcomes, while nationwide and disaggregated data should investigate associations and trends over time and identify vulnerable groups.
